Trail of Tsathogghua[1] is a Horror tabletop role-playing adventure, written by Keith Herber, with art by Steve Purcell, and published by Chaosium in 1984. It was released in PDF format in 2004.[2] Three horror adventures set in Greenland, Canada and Grand Rapids, Michigan for Call of Cthulhu, based on author Clark Ashton Smith's god-like literary creation Tsathoggua.
Trail of Tsathogghua is an adventure in which the player characters investigate a stone slab and its unusual markings which was discovered inside a glacier in Greenland by Eskimos.
Rick Swan reviewed Trail of Tsathogghua in The Space Gamer No. 75.[3] Swan commented that "If you've been happily devouring Chaosium's Cthulhu releases, rest assured that Trail of Tsathogghua is another top-notch effort. This is roleplaying at its finest, and I'm ready for the next one. And who knows . . . maybe it'll even have a title I can pronounce."[3]
